In our survey, 70% of respondents said that, in the future, they expect their workplace to permit the use of wearable technology. Moreover, roughly one out of two respondents agreed with the statement that “In the future, my company should fund the purchase of wearable tech” —nearly 60% of whom said employers should fund the technology because it would make them more efficient at work. Notably, consumer willingness to adopt wearable technology is much higher when their employer pays for it, versus paying out of pocket.
